Vielha 10K: A Special Race Celebrating the Spirit of Sport
In the heart of the Pyrenees, surrounded by the unmatched beauty of the Val d’Aran, the Vielha 10K is born—a special race that celebrates the spirit of sport, nature, and the dedication of those who make every event possible: volunteers, sponsors, exhibitors, and of course, the runners.
Starting and finishing in Vielha, this 8-kilometer course with 600 meters of elevation gain follows trails and paths that showcase just a small glimpse of the region’s unique beauty.
Taking place on Wednesday, July 2, after the elite athlete presentation, the race will begin at the Ultra-Trail® Village with a clear goal: to enjoy and share the passion for trail running.
